Russian director found guilty of embezzlement

Acclaimed Russian film and theatre director Kirill Serebrennikov [KEIR-ill Sara-BREN-ikov] has been found guilty of embezzlement. He has consistently denied guilt and his supporters say the charges are politically motivated. The judge handed him a suspended sentence, so he will serve no jail time, but he has been banned from running cultural institutions. Julia Chapman has more.
